Evaluation of the Networks of Mediterranean Youth (NET-MED Youth) Project (2014-2018) Año de publicación: 2019 Autor: Maksymilian Fras | Yael Ohana | Kimiko Hibri Pedersen | Christophe Dietrich | Mamoun Besaiso Autor corporativo: UNESCO The Networks of Mediterranean Youth (NET-MED Youth) Project is a regional project funded by the European Union and implemented by UNESCO from 2014 until 2018. It followed a comprehensive approach through interdisciplinary activities in different thematic areas aimed at advancing youth legal and policy frameworks, enhancing youth representation in media, and reinforcing youth employability and skills in response to the challenges experienced by young women and men in the region regarding their transition to full autonomous citizenship in the civic, political, economic, social and cultural spheres. NET-MED Youth contributed to the creation of an enabling environment for young women and men from nine of the Southern countries of the European Neighbourhood Policy (i.e. Algeria, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Palestine, Syria and Tunisia) to develop their competencies, to exercise their rights and meaningfully engage as active citizens in the development and implementation of national strategies on youth. The evaluation found that, overall, the NET-MED Youth Project was a successful initiative and created a momentum for Youth empowerment in the respective beneficiary countries. Its high relevance in the context of the Agenda 2030 resulted not least from UNESCO’s longstanding experience and good practices in working with youth organizations and youth-related stakeholders through youth engagement as partners and beneficiaries. The Project thus constituted a significant contribution to the UNESCO Operational Strategy on Youth 2014-2021. Gender equality was a central concern of NET-MED Youth, and systematically embedded throughout all activities as a transversal feature. In line with the Agenda 2030 commitment of leaving no one behind, several activities focused on issues of disadvantaged or traditionally underserved groups, such as youth with disabilities. Challenges identified are mainly related to the often difficult and in some countries unstable political environments. Together with the needs-based and rather context-specific approach in each country, this also affected to some extent the full implementation of the regional perspective. Furthermore, in the absence of a coherent and explicit longer-term exit strategy, the structures and results achieved risk not to be maintained, or scaled up over time, despite the strong local commitment and ownership created over the project duration. Through successfully incorporating youth aspirations in its design and implementation, the NET-MED Youth Project represented a new and innovative approach to youth engagement and empowerment in an interdisciplinary fashion, and should thus be considered as a basis for new thinking on which to build in the future. The high potential for replication of the NET-MED Youth Project, as a continuation or as an example of good practice for a comprehensive and interdisciplinary approach is thus to be further explored.
Strengthening Quality Assurance in Higher Education UNESCO-Shenzhen Project Update, June 2019 Año de publicación: 2019 Autor corporativo: UNESCO In 2016, UNESCO and the Shenzhen Municipal People’s Government of China joined hands with 10 African countries, and initiated the UNESCO-Shenzhen Project, with an aim to strengthen higher education systems by developing quality assurance mechanisms. The three-year project implemented since 2017 represents the commitment of UNESCO to the realization of Target 4.3 of the Sustainable Development Goals to “ensure equal access for all women and men to affordable and quality technical, vocational and tertiary education, including university” and the Education 2030 agenda.
Report of the regional training for Anglophone Africa, Cracking the code: quality, gender-responsive STEM education Año de publicación: 2019 Autor corporativo: UNESCO The African Union recognized the importance of science, technology, research and innovation in stimulating socio-economic development in Africa in its Agenda 2063, and even earlier in the 2007 Addis Ababa Declaration on Science, Technology and Scientific Research for Development. There is a growing demand for professionals with science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) skills in Africa, and the so-called fourth industrial revolution is expected to create a wide range of new jobs in these fields. However, unless efforts are made to address the mismatch between current skills and what will be needed for the future, this revolution will leave a large part of the continent behind. One of the concerns of many African countries is the low participation and academic performance of girls in STEM studies. UNESCO, with the financial support of the Government of Japan and in collaboration with the Rwanda Ministry of Education, the Rwanda Education Board, and the Rwanda National Commission for UNESCO, as well as numerous partners, organized a regional training to strengthen the capacities of education systems to provide gender-responsive STEM education where all children can learn, grow and develop to their full potential. This brief report presents the results and next steps.
Gender-responsive STEM education: Empowering girls and women for the jobs of today and tomorrow Año de publicación: 2019 Autor corporativo: UNESCO More girls are in school today than ever before, but they do not always have the same opportunities as boys to complete and benefit from an education of their choice. Too many girls and women are held back by biases, social norms and expectations influencing the quality of the education they receive and the subjects they study. They are particularly under-represented in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education, and consequently in STEM careers. UNESCO is giving special attention to this issue as part of its efforts to promote the empowerment of girls and women through education and as a response to its Member States’decisionon UNESCO’s role in encouraging girls and women to be leaders in STEM, including arts and design.
Teaching and Learning Transformative Engagement Año de publicación: 2019 Autor corporativo: UNESCO While there is a large body of literature on citizenship and civic education, there is less clarity about the meaning of ‘responsible transformative engagement’ for young learners in relation to GCED and ESD – notably, the types of transformative engagement and the meaning of ‘responsible’. Understanding better the connection between learners’ engagement and education can clarify the knowledge, skills and competencies that schools may provide, as well as how the role of education can vary depending on context. In this light, this paper explores the meaning of ‘responsible transformative engagement’ with a view to clarifying the role of education in ways that may be reflected by UNESCO and other education stakeholders.
Enseigner et apprendre l'engagement transformatif Año de publicación: 2019 Autor corporativo: Organisation des Nations Unies pour l'éducation, la science et la culture (UNESCO) Si les ouvrages consacrés à la citoyenneté et à l’éducation civique foisonnent, le sens d’un « engagement transformatif responsable » pour de jeunes apprenants dans le contexte de l’ECM et de l’EDD est moins clairement défini, notamment les types d’engagement transformatif et la notion de « responsabilité ». Mieux comprendre le lien entre l’engagement des apprenants et l’éducation permet de clarifier les connaissances, aptitudes et compétences que l’école peut enseigner, ainsi que le rôle variable que peut jouer l’éducation selon le contexte. Dans cette optique, le présent document s’interroge sur le sens d’un « engagement transformatif responsable » en vue d’apporter des éclaircissements sur le rôle de l’éducation qui peuvent être pris en compte par l’UNESCO et d’autres acteurs de l’éducation.
Enseñando y aprendiendo para una participación transformadora Año de publicación: 2019 Autor corporativo: Organización de las Naciones Unidas para la Educación, la Ciencia y la Cultura (UNESCO) Si bien existe una extensa bibliografía sobre educación cívica y ciudadana, hay menos claridad acerca del significado del concepto de una "participación transformadora responsable" de jóvenes estudiantes en relación con la ECM y la EDS, en particular, los tipos de participación transformadora y la definición del término "responsable". Comprender mejor la relación entre la participación de los estudiantes y la educación puede contribuir a mejorar la definición de los conocimientos, aptitudes y competencias que las escuelas pueden enseñar, así como las maneras en que el papel de la educación puede variar según el contexto. En este sentido, el presente documento explora el significado de una "participación transformadora responsable", con miras a explicar el papel de la educación de formas que puedan reflejar la UNESCO y otros actores de la educación

Capacity Develoment for Education: the CapED Programme at a glance Año de publicación: 2019 Autor corporativo: UNESCO Education has the power to transform lives and is at the heart of UNESCO’s mission to build peace, eradicate poverty and drive sustainable development. Right now, 750 million adults – two-thirds women – still lack basic literacy skills. Around 264 million children and youth are out of school and the international community must have almost 69 million new teachers to reach the 2030 education goals. These challenges can be tackled effectively through education reforms. However, these can only take place when countries have the capacities to put this change into action. As well as trained staff, countries need efficient organizational processes, functioning institutions and the tools and resources to design, implement and manage tailored education policies and plans. This is where the CapED Programme steps in. By mobilizing UNESCO’s global network, the Programme provides selected countries with a cohesive package of support. It works alongside stakeholders to reinforce national capacities to undertake evidence-based education reforms that fit into their national priorities and respond to SDG4 commitments, in order to offer quality education opportunities to all.
